Forward...

Time does not stop...no matter how much we wish it did at times. Reality is that we're walking towards our future. The question is, are we walking forward or backwards? Forward with expectancy for what's to come and what God has promised us, or backwards, looking at our past and thinking that our best days are behind us?

"...but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us."

Philippians 3: 13-14


Israel Houghton would put in these words in one of his songs:

You make all things new
Yes, you make all things new
And I will follow you FORWARD
